COMPUTERS

Computers can be scary! But building up from basic skills they can become useful, if not indispensable. Whether you are completely new to computers or an old hand wanting to learn advanced skills I can help.

Let me personalize a training program that shows you what you want to do without the clutter of technicalities you don't need to know about.

With Tune Up I will examine the programs and services that run automatically whenever you turn on your computer and disable those not needed. I will also check the state of your hard disk and if necesary reorganise it to work more effectively.

I will check your computer has an up-to-date anti-virus product installed. There are many free products or, if you prefer, paid products available. I will ensure that it is set to run automatically and to update itself so that you are always protected.

No matter how secure a computer is, it may break or be stolen. I will make sure that there is backup software installed (free or paid) and teach you how to use it. If you want I can set up an online backup routine for you so that even if you lose your computer and local backups you can still recover those important documents or photos.
